Composting is the aerobic decomposition of manure or other organic materials in the thermophilic temperature range. The composted material is odorless, fine-textured, low-moisture and can be bagged and sold for use in gardens or nurseries, or used as a fertilizer on cropland with little odor or fly breeding potential. Composting can kill pathogens and weed seeds.
